Water, water, water. I read on this site that we normally do not actually feel hunger, that our body is actually thirsty. So when you think your hungry drink water. If pills worked for weight loss do you think that there would be any over weight people? Exercise, calorie counting, and water it's a proven weight loss…

OMG Lady you have done a great job! Looking great!

I eat back some of my exercise calories if not then you are starving your body and it tries to hold on to any fat stores it has and once you've depleted that it goes for muscle.

Mine is fairly cheap : I spend about $50.00 in Vegetables for 2 weeks, I have Special K breakfast sandwiches 2 weeks is $8.50 a box of Special K cereal is $3.80 1/2 Gallon milk 3.15 I own an elliptical, bowflex extreme, free weights, and my gym membership is free right now because I volunteer there and waking is free…

I think it is wonderful that first you have not told your mom to go to hell and second you are still allowing her in your life. My Father was exactly like your mom and when I turned 16 yrs old I cut him completely out of my life. I am now 50 and I am a strong independent and healthy adult. I lost 100 lbs on mfp because I…

I do bagel thins with fat free cream cheese and Yogurt total is 190 calories, sometimes I add some fiber one squares cereal to my yogurt and have some fresh fruit. Breakfast is my big meal of the day!

Great job you look great!

Very awesome! Congrats!!!

I make salads a lot of the time. Also Veggie wraps are good. Bake potato also. Red beans and rice with salsa.

I met my goal a few months ago then changed it but I consider my self maintaining now. I need to log everyday it keeps me focused and reminds me not to given in or give up. Thanks MFP.

I need to log my calories. I need to exercise. No thanks that food is full of calories that I just don't need.

NOT unless your plan is to be malnourished loose your hair and have brittle nails. Try adding some vegetables to your diet they are low in calories and very good for you.

Being married to a tattoo artist I have 80% coverage of my body suit done. Yep body suit! I love all my tattoos i do have some I'd like to edit a little but no regrets.

Log with MFP = success Do it!!!

IDK because I don't eat the same calories everyday. I wish I could! I'd be 110lbs by now.!

WTG!!! You look amazing and I bet you feel great keep up the good work! I did the same thing I made one goal and when I reached I made another and have just kept going!

That is awesome and such a great feeling congrads!!

140lb I have to say I am completely floored by the kind words everyone has posted. Thanks you! It has been a life changing journey that is for sure. I feel absolutely wonderful both inside and outside. I feel like a new person one that smiles often and is enjoying life and all that it has for me. It is like I have finally…

No change in my tattoo, LOL they are the only thing that did not change hahaha!

I would love to own a jewelry shop/ second hand store. I love shopping a second hand stores and I make jewelry for my tattoo shop already. If getting health insurance was not an issue I'd do it in a second!

hahahaha:laugh:

I put it the first time I see it. Most people fluctuate 3-5 lbs in a day at least I do, so I don't sweat it! I weigh about the same time each day after doing my exercise and shower.

Thanks, I 'm going to up my calories today. I think tricking my body will help up today down tomorrow but I'll stay in a healthy range and take a day off from exercise now and again. I just want to get 5 more lbs off.

GO FOR IT! If I could I would I have lost over 120 lbs and I have problem areas that the fat is just not coming off so yep, I'd lipo the thighs in a second, I've already had a tummy tuck to get rid of all the excessive skin there, I need my arms done as well I feel like I have wings there. The girls need excess skin…

I got to my goal weight and have stayed with in 3-5 lbs of my goal for about 3 months now.

Our weight fluctuates daily 1-5lbs so no I don't since it changes so much. If I see a gain above 5lbs then yeah I will but thankfully that has not happened.

I think this is a problem for people in general. I have loss weight as well and still see the fat girl in the mirror. I think it has to do with what we are use to being, seeing and feeling for so long that when it changes it is hard to accept. I just watched the movie disfigured and it is about body image. Great movie and…

I exercise everyday, I exercise to eat. I do cardio and circuit training. I have a sedentary job so I feel as though I get enough rest sitting at my desk. Not sure if it is right or wrong, but I have lost weight.

Thanks for all the wonderful words. Anyone can do this you just have to want it bad enough. I get up at 4:30 am so I can get my work out in every morning. Yeah it sucks and yeah it is hard getting my butt out of bed at that hour, but I feel so good after my work out . I really hate missing a work out now because my body…
